Well some more inconsistency about this, on my pkgsrc 2007Q1

www/ap-auth-external is for apache 2.0
www/ap-auth-pam is for apache 1.3

I happen to find this a bit confusing, especially because installing the latter installs apache 1.3 which I dont really need ^^  

wip/ap2-auth-pam is for apache 2.0 which makes sense.

What about apache 2.2 modules ? how should something like mod_authnz_external be named ? maybe a bit more strict check on dependencies is required ?
